Set permissions and roles (RBAC)

Feature availability

Project roles are available on:

  • n8n Cloud: All plans

  • Self-hosted: Registered Community, Business, Enterprise

Custom roles (instance and project) are available on:

  • n8n Cloud: Enterprise

  • Self-hosted: Enterprise

RBAC in n8n lets you control access at two levels:

  • Instance roles: determine what a user can do across the entire instance. Built-in instance roles are Owner, Admin, and Member. You can also create custom instance roles for more granular control. Refer to Instance roles.

  • Project roles: determine what a user can do within a specific project. You group workflows and credentials into projects, and a user can have different project roles in different projects. Refer to See available roles.

This section provides guidance on setting up and using RBAC in n8n.
